| 58 | which significantly limit crop productivity. Soil health indicators | ||||
| 59 | such as low organic carbon content point toward challenges associated | ||||

| 98 | 10 hectares for rainfed land to ensure representative coverage. | ||||

| 104 | micro nutrients (N, P, K, S, Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu, B), pH, EC, organic | ||||
| 105 | carbon, and other soil health indicators. All results are uploaded to | ||||
| 106 | the central SHC digital portal, where data undergoes verification and | ||||
| 107 | quality control by agricultural officers before Soil Health Cards are | ||||
